it was . That time I was a 3rd year student in elementary school.

⁰

Her (h/l) (h/c) hair was flowing under the moon light. Her eyes glimmering like a shining star. Her (f/c) dress that makes look an angel. Now that she notice me-

"do you want to be my friend?" she said, closing her eyes as she smiled at me.

Now that I be friend with her, we meet eachother almost everyday. She is indeed beautiful, but it sometimes annoy me if she comes to play within my practice hour.

"What are you drawing?" y/n questioned curious

"Hm? Im drawing you and me!"

"Teru kun sugoiii!" She said, filled with excitement.

"Uh, just for the sake of your happiness, i think it's better to not befriend them anymore." I said to her trying my best to not offend her while still lookin down at my paper.

"Why?"

"How do I simply put it.. hmm...They seem, uh, fake. It looks like their only purposw of befriending you is to solely use you for fame and popularity" I said hesitantly

"oooooo its okay! I knew that from their face"

"Huh? really? so why are you still with them?"

"Well , even tho they are fake . At least they give me happiness even though it's only a little , so..~ because of that ,i think it's fair for all of us, we both get benefits from it, they get fame while i, hm be happy" she said smiling, but something about that smile doesn't seem as happy as it's supposed to.

"You're talking like you're just buying happiness from them."

"Well.. for me , when I get happiness, you must give them something to make them happy too!"

"But happiness is not a..." I sigh , there's no point telling this to her.

I was in the bad mood. Really bad mood. My parents just scolded me because I'm lacking at practice lately. I was about to get some fresh air, when I see (y/n) running towards me.

"Teru kunn!! What are you doing?" She asked. Please not now. To be honest, the more I think about it , the more I regret my decision to be friends with her. Now that I think about it , she is actually pretty annoying.

"I want to go practice , what are you doing here (y/n)chan ?" i gave her a fake smile.

"Hmm~ I'm bored! Can i go with you to see you practice? After that let's play together!" She said with cheery face. Those beautiful face is not working at me again now.

"Well..." scratching my head. I want to be honest. If I keep acting to be a kind person for her , she's going to disturb me every single day.

"(y/n)" i called her with serious tone. She hummed.

"I want to be honest now... (y/n) , I actually regret to be your friend." I saw her shocked expression, she's not saying anything at first. Then she ask why.

"Your childish attitude is annoying me. Now that I see your face everyday, it also makes me bored to seeing your face. You're not even smart , and you never give anything to me. Not even happiness." I said with blank face. I looked at her eyes. She's not crying, her face is still shocked . She then looked down. Then she start scratch her neck.

"Ahahaha... gomen gomen! You know you should just say that in to my face when the first time we met.. and I'm sorry , i really don't know that you annoyed at m-"

"How so ?" I cut her. I thought she knew I annoyed at her , but she just kept it for herself .

"B-because , you looked happy, having so much fun when we're playing together" she said with a smile , closing her eyes, still scratching her neck. She's not wrong. I really had fun playing with her. But it's not the same now. I already made my decision.

"I didn't know I made a face like that" i said coldly.

"Well ... I didn't knew you were so good at acting" she praised me. still smiling. Not crying.

"Um.. I-i will go now.. sorry to disturb you, minamoto san!" She bowed at me then run, her run is not really fast. I could see that she's not crying too. That's good. But she called me with my last name... why does it hurt? Well, since now I'm not her friend, I should just forget about her.

That time I was a 3rd year student at Kamoe Academy's middle school division.

I looked at the ranking board . I saw my name on the top.

I actually never pay attention to others, but one name caught eyes.

I began to think '(y/n)? 3rd year? I believe that (y/n was one year younger than me. Did she skipping a year? when did she-'

"Aaaa~ number 2 again?" I heard a familiar sound beside me. It was (y/n) (l/n). To be honest

She's more than before.

"Well , I don't really care . Guess im just going to read book at library. Oh! I remember (favorite manga) just released a new chapter! Yoshh , I wonder-" she began to talk to herself about (favorite manga) in low voice while walking back to her classroom. Then I heard some of the students began to gossiping about her.

"(y/n) (l/n)? She's the smart student that managed to skipped one year right?"

"I wonder why she moved to this academy.."

"I heard she didn't have many friends"

"But she's beautiful!"

"Bro, she rejected me.."

I then walked to 3-2. I asked the students if i could talk to her, but they said she always ignored the students that talked to her when she was reading her manga.

They tell me that (y/n) was a kind and smart girl, but many people envy her. Many students failed to be close with her because its hard to keep up with her talking.

'That's why she desperate to have friends...' I thought.

The school and the student council meeting is done, i was about to go home when I saw (y/n) is about to go home as well. I decided to walk her home.

"(l/n) san!" I called her. She looked back.

"Hm? Minamoto san?"

"Sashiburi (long time no see)"

"Hm. Sashiburi." She said coldly.

"I didn't know you're in the same school as me." I said trying to find a topic.

"Yeah , i never go out from my classroom except there's something interesting" she said, I hummed. Its getting akward...

"Why are you following me?" She ask.

"Oh! I decided to walk you home , sorry for not telling you fir-"

"HEEEEE!! The famous school prince decided to walk me home?! Huwaa, luckyy!!" She said to her self. I just giggle at her attitude.

"Thankyou for walking me home!" She said, she was about to leave. But then she turned to me and asked me if I want to come inside because it's already so long since we saw to eachother.

"Here , I have many (favorite dessert) . So you can have one" she said with a smile.

"You live alone?" I ask her.

"Hmmm~ what if I said yes?" She answer with seductive smirk as her body is getting closer to mine.

"PFFFT- HAHHAHAH kidding, i live with my (family members)" she explained, going back to her sit.

"O-oh" my ears going red, and I could feel my face heated up.

"I heard there's a boy whom confessed to you" i said trying to make me the awkward tension gone.

"hm what? there's many boys that confessed to me! They're asking me to go out with them! Guess all the boy on our age has bad taste!" She said ending it with laughing quitely.

"Is there someone you like? Romantically." Is there a reason why she rejected them? Because she liked someone? Or is it because I said last time?

"Oya oya? Why did you ask that? Well since you're the prince of the school, I will answer you so your fangirls wouldn't hate me. I'm so kind isn't I?" She said praising herself.

"T-they dont know that I asked you this..." I said and smiled worriedly. She's more fun than before.

"Well , I don't have one." She said normally

"So why did you reject the boys?" I asked her.

"Its simple! Do you think they will enjoy dating with me? I have a small boobs (just skip this sentence if you have big ones), I'm boring and annoying, I don't have a close friends and that will make me stick with him everyday and of course it will make him annoyed. So it's better to reject them rather than I'm the one who in the end will feel sad because they broke me up. I look like a trash anyway , and who would even want to date a trash ?" she explained. She didn't even look sad , she look.. exactly happy when she was explained that to me.

"Is it because of me?" I asked her , I could see that she was confused even tho im looking down right now.

"Is it because of me? You starting to feel yourself like a trash?" I asked , I could feel my self trembling.

"Minamo-"

I cutted her. I knew it would go this way. I knew I would never forget her. I knew i would regret the decision I make that time. But it's already happening. I wil face the consequences. I want to be (y/n)'s friend. I want our relationship become like that time. I want us to be together.

私は彼女が好きだった

待って、いいえ

私は彼女を愛している

And I want to stay with her .

"Guess you just regretted the decision you made that time huh?"

"Eh?" I looked up. She look at me with smile.

"When you said that I'm annoying to you... to be honest... I was really sad" her eyes began to get watery.

"Teru kun. I wanted to be your friend , that's why I cried... After you said that I couldn't even sleep, i lose my appetite everyday. That's why I decided to forget everything about you.

She's crying. She's crying right now. In front of me. She feels the same way as me. She knew that she would never forget me. We both feel guilty at eachother right now.

"Because I knew... every time , every single time I'm trying to make friends, I'm searching for a friend, then I have friends. The happiness I felt..... its different. The happiness they gave to me.... never made my heart warm like the happiness you gave to me... my (family member) never paid attention to me , my friends used me for fame , and l you... you even wore a mask when you're with me... I don't even know... who should I trust- I want to trust whoever trusted me too.. but... There's no one... The happiness you gave me..

it felt like a ...

For me... getting a happiness like that, but never even gave you a thing that made you happy... what kind of human am I..."

She began to sobbing, I cupped her cheeks and wipe her tears.

"Happiness is a feeling that you got when you were happy, people could have or feel happiness with many different ways, and when people felt this happiness'.....

they get it for .

We're friends now, right? I trust you. And you trust me" I looked at her and smile. I could feel a small tears on the corner of my eyes.

"Teru kun" hearing her call my first name its really made my heart warm.

"Why are you crying? We're friends now right?" I smacked her head softly.

"Baka (idiot), this is what you call tears of joy" I said wiping my tears with my right hand , as my left hand still cupping her cheeks.

"EH! NO WONDER YOU'RE ALWAYS NUMBER ONE ON THE EXAM! You know many things that I didn't know! Hm hm , that's make sense." (y/n) smiled.

"T-things like this doesn't have a connection to our exam.." i said scratching my cheeks with my index finger. We looked at eachother then laugh.

"But you haven't said sorry yet. You know its really hurts when you say-" she began to complain. I then say sorry.

Starting from that day , me and (y/n) become close friends. There's onetime I ask (y/n) out and she rejected me , because it's better so I didn't get bored at her easily.

What surprised me is that (y/n) was actually an exorcist like me. It's making me closer to her.

Now i'm a second year student at Kamome academy Highschool division. I became the student council president and an exorcist, while (y/n) only works as an exorcist in this school.

But (y/n) is way different than me. Well for me, supernaturals will always be a danger to the living. There's is no such things as a 'good supernatural'.

And for (y/n) , she would ask the supernatural to be her friends. If they reject her, she will torture them a little. If they're trying to eat her in the first place, she will exorcist them.
